I recently signed up for a KAL (knit-a-long) on ravelry. I've always avoided knit-a-longs because I tend to get competitive and get mine done first! I don't know if I did this time or not, but it didn't take me very long to make this sweater. It's an enlarged version of a baby sweater designed by Elizabeth Zimmerman for the Knitter's Almanac (it's for February, hence the name). I used a merino, alpaca, cashmere blend I bought on sale at a yarn shop about 50 miles from here. It's nice and warm, which is a real plus because it snowing outside my window right now! A lone knitter on the plains of the Dakotas explores knitting, spinning and other things worth doing.
